Hi folks, I've just signed up on here, and I'm relatively inexperienced at trading. I was curious as to whether most of you on here are professional traders, or private investors (like me). I don't mean to be nosy of course!

Phew, just found what looks like the last one in the whole world! On Amazon, 14. Thanks for the advice.

And yes, it was the UK one. :-)

what a happy monday all round! it was a different book but whatever, it brought back funny memories.
i also recommend some classics to see how things can go wrong. just found an excellent link to a great book: Extraordinary Popular Delusions And The Madness Of Crowds
By Charles MacKay 1841:

Alvin Hall has written a basic guide to shares and investing
"Winning with shares" should be widely available if you are
looking to start a library for reference - you may not actually
intend doing this britt but chances are you will in the end! LOL
After the basic stuff, there's loads and loads, just check if they
centre on the US or UK markets or a spread of markets. A lot of
the books about centre on the US (Alvin Hall's doesn't) which is
OK but not the same.

He's the guy who does that TV program, Your Money or Your Life isn't he? I'll have a look around for that too. Thanks.
